The summer of bubble-gum nails: that's how my husband has christened this summer's fashion for brightly coloured nails -- try soigne botanique polish in Kyoto or Vodka if you want to see what we're talking about.

The main theme at this year's show was Young British Designers, whilst previous years have focused on Scandinavian and Belgian labels. It's a great place to get a preview of trends that will be arriving in fashion forward stores and it looks like the neon trend is set to continue into 2014.

The amazing thing about Fashion Week is how it it happens roughly every six months and yet it has this magical ability to create the excitement and anticipation of an event held, maybe, every two years.

Last season I fell for Alexander McQueen's playful, younger line, McQ, all over again when Rihanna put a rockabilly spin on their sleeveless tartan puffball dress for her appearance on UK X Factor back in November.

I'm delighted this trend is so prevalent this season, as, ever since I got my first fluoro-based outfit - a black boilersuit (as rompers were called back in the mid 1980s) from Mothercare with a day glo pink belt, pocket lining and matching towelling ankle socks - I have had a huge thing for neon.
